Techniques of Diamond Drilling Equipment

Diamond drilling equipment are extremely useful in drilling holes in most difficult type of material. It can drill holes in seconds in tiles, concrete, natural stone, granite, bricks etc. It can make a hole in any part of the building like the wall, the ceiling or the floor.

The drilling equipment has a diamond core drill bit that is fixed at the end of the drill rod in the machine. This is used to drill holes.

There are many types of diamond drilling equipments which are all lightweight and portable, so that are easy to carry wherever necessary. They can be used in dry and wet places for drilling purposes. They all work on electricity and are used for various techniques necessary for drilling.

The various types are electric drilling machine, the hydraulic drilling machine, the pneumatic drilling machine.

The rotary core and wire lines are the two main types of diamond drilling techniques. Rotary drilling is used when boreholes have to be dug and while coring in rocks. Wire line drilling is used for mineral exploration. Here its work is not only to dig a hole but also to get a core sample.

In the electric drilling machine there are four types:

1. Hand held Electric - This can drill very fast and make holes in concrete and natural stone. It is good for attach and re bar installation. Its main features are that it is shock free, dust free and vibration free. It can be charged very quickly. It also allows a quick elimination of the center core.
2. Hand held electric mini - This can make holes in seconds in tiles, concrete, natural stone and granite. It is used for making counter tops, gravestones and stonework. It sis also used in plumbing. This machine avoids shock and is also good for eradicating cracks.

3&4 Hand held and Rig mounted electric - These are very powerful machines. They have the advantage of also being lightweight. 5" holes can be made in brick, limestone, cinder blocks etc. The holes can be made rapidly and they work very efficiently and are long lasting.

The hydraulic drilling machines are of two types:

1. Hand held hydraulic machine and
2. Rig mounted hydraulic machine

Both of them can work in mechanical and electronic ways. They have the advantage of being able to be moved easily. They are long lasting and safe and reliable.

The pneumatic machines are also of two types.

1. Hand held pneumatic machine
2. Rig mounted pneumatic machine

They can bore holes in walls, unruly brick, ceilings, floors and have a solid anchoring system. They also make very smooth and accurate holes. They are also dust free and can be used in installation work, water and gas supply, railway bridges and tunnels, electricity etc.

To keep the drilling machine in good condition and to prevent it from getting overheated, the drill bit has to be rotated gently and lubricated with water. The drill speeds should also be reduced and with enough lubrication, the life of the drill bit can be increased.

Each type of drilling is used for a specific technique and is very useful for that particular purpose. It is necessary to be aware of the different types of machines available, their use and their advantages and disadvantages and the technique for which it is used before you decide to use a particular type for your work. Most of the construction, repair and utilities work require drilling and it is very essential that you have enough knowledge about the various techniques used.
